I tracked all the 2024 NFL Draft odds and props available across all sportsbooks from the moment they opened. Among others, we have odds to be taken with the first overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, odds to be a top 5/10 pick, draft position over/unders, first player taken at each position, and many more as the year goes on.

The 2024 NFL Draft took place Thursday, April 25 in Detroit, Michigan. Caleb Williams was selected first-overall, which was a foregone conclusion for a while. But you can see how the 2024 NFL Draft odds changed for other props below.

2024 NFL Draft Odds for First Overall Pick

USC’s Caleb Williams, who won the 2022 Heisman Trophy, was heavily favored to go first-overall in the 2024 NFL Draft. Williams is being referred to as a generational talent, but one who has also posted big numbers in college.

Drake Maye always had the second-best odds to go first-overall up until early March when Jayden Daniels surpassed him. However, Caleb Williams is such a heavy favorite that it wasn’t really worth discussing the smaller moves that have happened behind him in the odds.

Odds to Be First-Overall Pick in 2024 NFL Draft

Similar to 2023, it was quarterbacks who have always been the top three contenders to be taken first-overall in the 2024 NFL Draft. Caleb Williams of USC was the favorite with very short -20000 odds. A $20 bet on Williams would only stand to profit $0.10 and return $20.10. Jayden Daniels and Drake Maye had the second and third-best odds, respectively.

The biggest surprise on the board last fall was Marvin Harrison Jr getting the fourth-best odds to go first-overall at +1500. (He did have the third-best odds for a long time too.) With the Bears holding onto the first pick, his odds faded to +20000. The surprise isn’t a slight on Harrison Jr’s talent – he’s a fantastic prospect – but rather a result of only three wide receivers being selected first-overall in the history of the NFL Draft. It has not happened since 1996 when Keyshawn Johnson was taken first-overall by the New York Jets.

Here are some notes on the odds movement we saw:

• [April 25] The Bears used the first-overall pick on Caleb Williams.
• [April 25] On the day of the NFL Draft, Caleb Williams is an overwhelming favorite to be the first-overall selection with odds as short as -20000.
• [March 12] Jayden Daniels had been closing the gap between himself and Drake Maye in terms of the second QB to come off the board in the NFL Draft, and while it is bigger news when viewing the odds to be the second-overall pick, it is worth noting Daniels has overtaken Maye for the second-best odds to go first-overall as well. Seeing the Commanders sign Marcus Mariota, a QB who can also run an offense designed for Daniels, was what tipped the scales in the LSU product’s favor.
• [February 12, 2024] With both the college and NFL seasons now finished, Caleb Williams is breaking away from the pack even further in the odds to be the first pick. Williams’ odds have gotten as short as -1200.
• [November 14, 2023] While Caleb Williams is still the heavy favorite to go first overall in the draft, Drake Maye has been steadily closing the gap. Maye’s odds were at +500 in the summer and have now improved to +275.
• [April 28] Caleb Williams has opened as an extremely heavy favorite to be the first-overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. Williams has opened with -550 odds with Drake Maye given the second-best odds at +600.

2024 Odds to Be 2nd-Overall Pick

When it comes to the second-overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, which was held by the Washington Commanders, Drake Maye was as heavy as a -140 favorite to be selected with this pick. However, when the Commanders signed Marcus Mariota, a quarterback with similar skills/traits to Daniels and quite opposite of Maye, sportsbooks believed Washington had tipped their hand for what they’ll do with the second pick. Daniels was the odds-on favorite to go second-overall with odds as long as -700 ahead of the draft.

There was a brief moment on Friday (April 19), where Maye and Daniels were both given -115 odds to be the second pick. But that didn’t last long, as Daniels became heavily favored again.

Washington did indeed go with Daniels second-overall.

2024 Odds to Be 3rd-Overall Pick

With the odds to go second-overall leaning towards Daniels, it was Maye who had become the favorite to go third-overall to the New England Patriots. Maye was given -300 odds to be taken with the third pick. Though, some believed it may not be New England using this pick.

The Pats held onto the pick and took Maye.

2024 Odds to Be 4th-Overall Pick

The Arizona Cardinals held the fourth-overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft and the odds favored them taking Marvin Harrison Jr. The Ohio State wide receiver was given -275 odds to be the fourth pick. Michigan quarterback JJ McCarthy had the second-best odds at +700.

Arizona would take MHJ with the fourth pick.

2024 Odds to Be 5th-Overall Pick

The Los Angeles Chargers held the fifth-overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, and after releasing Mike Williams and trading Keenan Allen, it made a lot of sense for Malik Nabers to be the favorite to be selected with this pick. Nabers was given +230 odds to be the fifth pick.

However, we saw some massive movement one day before the draft, as JC Latham came out of nowhere to become the new favorite with +250 odds. This was rather unusual when you consider Joe Alt is still given the best odds to be the first offensive lineman off the board.

JJ McCarthy once again has short odds to be taken with this pick, as the Chargers very well could have opted to trade back and try to address more holes on their roster. Nabers’ odds have faded to +400 ahead of the draft, the third-best.

The Chargers would stay put and address their offensive line needs, taking Joe Alt.

2024 Odds to Be a Top 5 Pick

While players like Jayden Daniels, Drake Maye, and Marvin Harrison Jr were tough to bet, the fifth player to go in the top five is much more uncertain.

2024 Odds to Be 6th-Overall Pick

With the New York Giants holding the sixth-overall pick in the NFL Draft, Malik Nabers was the favorite to be selected. If the G-Men were going to stick with Daniel Jones / not move up for a QB, they’d be smart to bring in a true #1 wide receiver. Nabers is exactly that.

The Giants followed through on this and took Nabers with the sixth pick.

2024 Odds to Be 7th-Overall Pick

Joe Alt was the favorite to be selected with the seventh-overall pick, which was held by the Tennessee Titans. Brian Callahan brings a much different offensive mindset than Tennessee has had under Mike Vrabel, and they spent big in free agency to provide Will Levis with weapons, namely Calvin Ridley. Sportsbooks strongly believed Tennessee would make an investment to keep Levis upright.

Tennessee did exactly that, but Alt was not on the board for them to take. The Titans went with JC Latham instead.

2024 Odds to Be 8th-Overall Pick

The Atlanta Falcons held the eighth-overall pick and Dallas Turner was favored to be selected in this spot. The Falcons already had a very exciting arsenal of weapons and added Kirk Cousins in free agency. After recording the 12th-fewest sacks last season, it would have made sense for Atlanta to add a great pass-rusher.

However, we saw Atlanta shock the football world and take Michael Penix Jr with the eighth-overall pick.

2024 Odds to Be 9th-Overall Pick

Two days prior to the draft, we saw a new favorite emerge to be the ninth-overall pick. Byron Murphy was the favorite with +170 odds.

Wide receiver Rome Odunze was the favorite to be selected with the ninth-overall pick, but closed with the second-best odds. The Bears entered draft night with this pick, and they kept it to take Odunze.

2024 Odds to Be 10th-Overall Pick

Brock Bowers was heavily favored to be the tenth player selected in the 2024 NFL Draft. The New York Jets held this pick heading into draft night and didn’t really have a true receiving threat at tight end right now.

However, the Jets would trade this pick to the Vikings, who would select QB JJ McCarthy.

NFL Draft Position Over/Unders

Sportsbooks were a little slow opening up draft position over/unders in 2024, but did start seeing over/unders for most of the players projected to be first-round picks, as well as a handful of second-rounders, about a week prior to the draft.

2024 Odds to Be First Player Selected at Each Position

Sportsbooks offered odds on who the first player selected at each playing position would be in the 2024 NFL Draft. Like above, I cut down on the number of players being shown for each NFL Draft prop.

Odds to Be First Quarterback Selected in 2024

Most sportsbooks shut this market down early, as Caleb Williams was almost certainly going to be the first-overall pick in the NFL Draft, which would make him the first QB taken. You can see a breakdown of what the odds were below:

Caleb Williams was heavily favored to be the first quarterback selected in the 2024 NFL Draft with -1200 odds. Rounding out the top five contenders to be the first QB taken were: Jayden Daniels (+700), Drake Maye (+850), JJ McCarthy (+3000), and Michael Penix Jr (+9000).

Daniels saw a massive rise up the board. When these odds opened, the LSU product was given the tenth-best odds. He improved to the second-best, thanks to a strong final season in college as well as a couple college QBs deciding to stay in school for another year.

Odds to Be First Non-QB Selected in 2024

Marvin Harrison Jr was favored to be the first non-quarterback selected in the 2024 NFL Draft with -500 odds. MHJ’s odds improved dramatically since the college season ended. The Ohio State product was the favorite with -135 odds in late 2023.

Olumuyiwa Fashanu, an offensive tackle for Penn State, was given the second-best odds when this betting market opened. Jared Verse, a defensive end for Florida State, overtook him for the second-best odds later on in the college season, but Verse has slipped too. Once given +300 odds, Verse was getting +1100 odds at close and was fourth on the board. Joe Alt, a tackle from Notre Dame, quickly held the second-best odds, but he too was overtaken, as Malik Nabers climbed up the board.

MHJ was the first non-QB taken at pick #4.

Odds to Be First Running Back Selected in 2024

Though Blake Corum may have been the most popular running back in the NCAA last season, it was Texas’ Jonathon Brooks who was the favorite to be the first RB taken in the draft. Brooks had overtaken Florida State’s Trey Benson in the week leading up to the NFL Draft.

Brooks was the first RB taken and he came off the board 46th to the Panthers.

Odds to Be First Wide Receiver Selected in 2024

Marvin Harrison was the heavy favorite to be the first wide receiver selected. Malik Nabers had the second-best odds.

MHJ was the first WR taken, as he went fourth-overall to the Cardinals.

Odds to Be First Offensive Lineman Selected in 2024

Joe Alt was the favorite to be the first offensive lineman selected in the draft. Alt was given -600 odds. Taliese Fuaga was given the second-best odds.

The odds were correct here as the Chargers took Alt with the fifth-overall pick.

Odds to Be First Defensive Player Selected in 2024

Dallas Turner was the favorite to be the first defensive player selected in the draft. Quinyon Mitchell had the second-best odds for a long time, but Latu Laiatu took over ahead of the draft.

It was Latu who was the first defensive player taken, but he didn’t come off the board until pick 15.

Odds to Be First Defensive Lineman Selected in 2024

The odds to be the first DL/EDGE player selected favored Dallas Turner with Laiatu Latu close behind. Laiatu ended up being the first defensive lineman selected, going 15th to the Colts.

Odds to Be First Corner Selected in 2024

The odds said Quinyon Mitchell will be the first cornerback selected in the 2024 NFL Draft, and they were correct. Mitchell was taken 22nd by the Philadelphia Eagles.

2024 Total Players Drafted in the 1st Round at Each Position

Sportsbooks offered 2024 NFL Draft props on the total number of players taken in the first round at various playing positions. You can find each one below:

Total Quarterbacks Drafted in First Round in 2024

Though the odds favored both Michael Penix Jr and Bo Nix not being taken in the first round, over 4.5 quarterbacks being taken in the first round was still -260. (To be clear, this did make sense, since it only takes one of the two being drafted to push this prop over.)

The over cashed come pick 10, as the fifth QB had come off the board to the Vikings. Denver added on with a QB of their own, making it six QBs taken in the first round.

Total Offensive Linemen Drafted in First Round in 2024

Though not many offensive linemen are projected to go in the first ten picks of the 2024 NFL Draft, sportsbooks expected to see a pretty good run on linemen after that. The total for offensive linemen taken in the first round was set at 9.5 and the over was given -194 odds.

The under cashed here as only nine offensive linemen were taken.

Total Wide Receivers Drafted in First Round in 2024

Just about everyone was certain the likes of Marvin Harrison Jr, Malik Nabers, and Rome Odunze would be taken very early in the first round, but sportsbooks favored under 6.5 WRs being taken in the first round.

The over cashed at plus-money here, as seven wide receivers were taken.

Total Cornerbacks Drafted in First Round in 2024

The odds at sportsbooks heavily favored under 5.5 corners being selected in the first round.

The under cashed as only three corners were taken.

2024 Team to Draft a Player Odds

Sportsbooks made odds on which team will draft certain players available. It was not a very lengthy list, but it did include some of the 2024 NFL Draft’s biggest names, including Marvin Harrison Jr, JJ McCarthy, and Brock Bowers among others. The players can be found below in alphabetical order.

Each player featured below had odds to be drafted by all 32 teams that can be found at the sportsbooks, but I cut it down to the top contenders for the sake of space.

Odds on Team to Draft Blake Corum

Blake Corum’s coach at Michigan, Jim Harbaugh, is now the head coach for the Los Angeles Chargers. Harbaugh’s new team is the favorite to select his old running back.

However, it was the LA Rams who drafted Corum in the third round.

Odds on Team to Draft Bo Nix

The Denver Broncos were heavy favorites to draft Bo Nix, with the Minnesota Vikings and Las Vegas Raiders possessing the second-best odds. The oddsmakers got this one right, as Denver did draft Nix with the 12th-overall pick.

Odds on Team to Draft Brock Bowers

The New York Jets were the favorites to draft TE Brock Bowers. They were well ahead of the pack with +145 odds. The team with the next-best odds was the Colts at +350.

The Jets went offensive line with their first pick, though, and Indianapolis stayed put at 15. Bowers went off the board 13th to the Raiders.

Odds on Team to Draft JJ McCarthy

The Minnesota Vikings were heavily favored to draft JJ McCarthy with +170 odds. The Patriots were given the second-best odds at +380. It was in fact the Vikings who drafted McCarthy with the 10th-overall pick.

Odds on Team to Draft Jayden Daniels

The Washington Commanders were the favorites to draft Jayden Daniels, and they did take the LSU product with the second-overall pick.

Odds on Team to Draft Marvin Harrison Jr

The Arizona Cardinals were heavy favorites to draft Marvin Harrison Jr, and they did take him with the fourth-overall pick.

Odds on Team to Draft Michael Penix Jr

The Raiders were listed as the favorites to draft Michael Penix Jr. However, Atlanta shocked everyone and drafted Penix with the eighth-overall pick.

Odds on Team to Draft Xavier Worthy

The Buffalo Bills and Kansas City Chiefs were given the best odds to draft Xavier Worthy, the new record-holder for the fastest 40-yard dash. The Bills and Chiefs were given +500 odds, while the Dolphins were next with +750 odds.

It was the Chiefs who moved up, getting a deal done with the Bills to acquire their 28th-overall pick, and took Worthy.

---

2024 NFL Draft Order – First Round

The 2023-24 NFL season concluded and we have the order set for the entire first round of the 2024 NFL Draft. You can see who holds picks 1-32 in the table above. To be clear, the order above was what we headed into the draft with. Many trades were made on draft night, but I did not capture those above.

The Chicago Bears held the first-overall pick, thanks to their trade with the Panthers last year, while the Kansas City Chiefs were set to make the final pick (32nd) of the first round. That changed when they traded up, and then the Bills traded the 32nd pick as well. It was Carolina who made the final pick of the first round.

Closing Odds to Have 1st Overall Pick in 2024 NFL Draft

To start the 2023 NFL season, the Arizona Cardinals had the lowest NFL win total and the best odds to finish the season with the fewest regular season wins. This would suggest they were the favorite to get the first pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. However, Carolina’s struggles early in the season have moved them to the favorites to get the first-overall pick / finish with the worst regular season record.
